What do you have going on? I think we are going to attempt to take the kids to an egg hunt at church this morning but who knows after that. DH was sick yesterday so he called off today. If he stays in bed all day I'm going to lose my mind. He wasn't that sick and when I was sick I got zero alone time until night time.
A woke up at 5. I can't even remember a time when she last woke up that early. We're at my parents and it's pretty cold, so maybe that's why? She's also been eating like a horse! Growth spurt??
Today I'm going to the church to decorate the Fellowship Hall and help with Easter breakfast prep. After that I have to brave the crowds and go grocery shopping. I'm hoping people will be too busy doing Easter things today and the stores won't be that bad. Tomorrow we will go to breakfast at church, then service, then the egg hunt, then home. I'm still deciding if I'm going to make a ham dinner or not. The people group of people we usually celebrate holidays with are going out to eat this year and I'm just not into that. I may stop at a friend's for dessert though.
My husband rolled over in bed to tell me about the giraffe being in active labor and showed me the live feed. My response: "oh my god the feet are hanging out of her butt! Why are you showing me this?!?!"
To be fair, I just woke up, and had not been properly caffeinated yet.
@justinslovo Henry also has a massive teepee, courtesy of the ILs.. I'm planning to use it for Louis this summer when we are out in the yard to keep him out of the sun. Just a thought in case you decide to keep it.
My kid has a cold and is alternating between being the sweetest cuddliest snot monster and a complete terror. Plus canines. I'm leaving her with H and running away for a while.

We had our neighborhood Easter egg hunt this morning. R wanted to play so we're hanging at the playground while he swings. They have the pool uncovered and filled! I guess this means I need a swimsuit.
My family is plotting against me. H kissed me bye at 4:45. AB woke for the day at 5:45. DD2 had an 8 am soccer game.
Going to engage in a little retail therapy at Target and then take the girls to lunch at the mall. Time for our monthly "H is gone" Hate-fil-a trip! Yum- lemonade and Polynesian sauce!
My Easter motivation is all jacked up. Along with my mental state recently. The girls are getting before and after Easter stuff because Auntie/Mama is out of sync. They got their personalized bags from thirty- one yesterday. Dev got an overnight tote and Reagz got her first backpack. Their books should be getting here next week. I'm so used to Amazon that this Usborne delivery feels like years! We are supposed to have karaoke tomorrow after dinner, i haven't decided on my song. Yes I am hot mess lately

We're on the road to grandma's (mom's). I'm excited for a weekend with my family! And also the food. Mom is an amazing cook and we get spoiled at her house.
The reds had kids opening day today. We went down for the block party but not the game and it was so fun! They had fire and police trucks for the kids to climb in, face painters, and the reds players walked a red carpet and were so patient signing a billion autographs. We didn't do autographs because my kids weren't quite patient enough. Hopefully next year we'll stay longer and see some more people.
Now we've got to get some cleaning and cooking done because we're having some friends over to to cookout and have the kids hunt for eggs in the yard.

Good job @feegan!
Dh and I got to hang out this morning just the two of us since my sister took my kids yesterday. We drove separately to get them. Dh is taking the older two to comic con. I am taking viv out to pick up somethings for tomorrow. We had lunch first before we parted ways.
I told dh let's have lunch at chick fil a since the kids can play. He didn't want fast food. So we settled on Red Robin. Well it sucked because viv was not having it. One of us had to talk her around the entire time. She would scream her head off at the table, it sucked! But now viv and I are in the car and heading to run errands. Then I am going home to make my croissants for tomorrow.

@justinslovo We bought those too but I made them Galaxy eggs! I painting with black chalk paint then used a cotton ball to add purple, blue, and gold paint, then speckled white. They are pretty awesome.

I have three happy and tired pirates from our pirate cruise on the Potomac. Now onto My Gym for private free play with uncle J. Hopefully everyone sleeps well tonight!
We decided last minute to go strawberry picking after the Egg hunt this morning and missed pixiepink24 by like an hour But dang they are so good and we can't stop munching them... which isn't a bad idea so I'm not up until midnight making jam.

DH and I went to see The King and I in Boston today and it was amazing! Today is also the 4th anniversary of the bombings and marathon weekend so the city was packed. We had a great time sans kiddos and the weather was perfect!
So we were cleaning up the deck today and my H had just put the umbrella up on our patio table when a strong wind blew it over and shattered the entire table. There was glass everywhere. We got most of the glass cleaned up before our friends came over but it was so bizarre.
We had the egg hunt and my kids are all terrible egg hunters. Sam had no interest and actually stepped on eggs that got in his way. DS has to open and investigate every egg he finds so between the 2 of them they got 5 eggs. Oh well. Tomorrow they'll got a lot more loot.
I've had the best couple days. Yesterday, H had some work to do in the yard after work, so I picked JR up from daycare and took her shopping at carters and then out for a girls dinner. Then this morning we woke up, had some cuddles in bed, went to music class then to a birthday party for one of her classmates. THEN we came home, both took a 2 hour nap, went to my H's favorite neighborhood place for dinner, came back home, JR peed in the potty before bath and was so proud of herself, and then we had a great Storytime before bed. Now we're watching a movie on the couch and I'm so content.
